History

Malu was born to two airbending monks and raised in the Easter Air Temple. When the Fire Nation attacked the Air Nomads during the passing of Sozin's Comet, her mother hid her away in a cave in order to keep her save. As such, Malu survived the raid, though her parents were among the first casualties in the war.

For years, Malu lived a solitary existence, teaching herself airbending. Despite lacking a teacher, she quickly mastered the art, which helped her to survive. It was not until 10 AG that she came out of hiding and began attacking Fire Nation soldiers. She became a legend in the Earth Kingdom as an enigmatic beauty who supposedly controlled the spirits and could appear and vanish at will.

Afterward, some claimed she eventually made her home in the mountain passes, and villagers paid tribute to the spirit who had protected the forest.[1]
